Amy Peters' Nutrition

I started watching her DVD. It is not too surprising but pretty good.

The nutritional part doesn't surprise me. That girl eats 3 rice cakes and one tbsp of peanut butter for one of her meals. Another meal was oatmeal and whey. Another meal was some interesting looking oatmeal cookies that I'm going to have to try.

What I did like is she uses a multigrain cereal made by quaker instead of oatmeal. She said it has to be purchased online, but I think I'm going to try it. Eating oatmeal is one of the worst things about trying to be a competitor. You can't eat the instant flavored stuff that is sold at the store because it has too much processed junk in it. So to eat clean oatmeal, you have to flavor it with cinnamon and a natural sweetner...and honestly it is not awful, but still not GOOD. It is the one meal I just choke down each day and try not to think about at all. And everyone knows I hate it... they are always asking why I eat it if I hate it... they don't really understand.

Amy also uses a TON of supplements. It was good to see what she takes because I need to start figuring that out. Looks like I need some stuff for amino acids, natural testosterone booster, and energy. I already take some pretty good calcium and daily vitamin supplements.

I think I figured out that it will cost me around $800 for a nutritional plan catered to me for competition. I'm pretty sure I can sell Andy on that. He has been very supportive so far.
